The Master of Science in Media Technology provides in-depth knowledge of media production, technology, and design. This program aims to prepare students for roles in advanced media environments, fostering innovation and creativity in their projects. Graduates can pursue careers in film, television, and interactive media.
The curriculum delves into media production processes, including coding and interactive design. Students also engage in practical projects that enhance creative skills and technical know-how.
The program is divided into four semesters, with a mixture of lectures, hands-on workshops, and a significant project or thesis work in the final semester.
Graduates come out with strong technical and creative competencies in media production and technology. They are prepared to tackle complex media projects and lead teams in innovative environments.

Third-country (non-EU/EEA) applicants generally need to have their prior qualifications legalised and translated for the admission application. Exact rules depend on the country that issued each document — always confirm with the university's admissions office.
Program-specific items — a CV, letter of motivation, an entrance exam (e.g. GMAT, GRE, SAT) or a portfolio — vary by degree. Check this program's requirements above and its official page.
The level of legalisation your certificates need depends on your country of origin:
Apostille
If your country is part of the Hague Apostille Convention, an Apostille from the competent authority of the issuing country is sufficient.
No legalisation
A small number of countries have a bilateral agreement with Austria and need no further legalisation.
Full diplomatic legalisation
For all other countries: the full chain — pre-certification by the issuing country's authorities (e.g. Ministry of Education and Ministry of Foreign Affairs), then legalisation by the competent Austrian representation (embassy/consulate).
Translations are usually done after legalisation. Check the required order with the issuing authorities and the Austrian representation.
After admission: proof of sufficient funds, health insurance and the student residence permit are part of the visa process — not university admission. We cover those in the guides.
